The Mackenzies (Books 4–6). The Mackenzies, #8

Three unforgettable love stories set in New Zealand's Mackenzie country. From an astronomer who discovers her heart can't be ruled by logic, to a woman forced to face the man who once broke her heart, to a single mother fighting for her daughter's future-each finds love where they least expect it. Emotional, heartwarming, and filled with clean romance, the Mackenzies series celebrates second chances, resilience, and the healing power of love.
This boxed set contains the last three books in the six-book series:**What you See in the Stars**A brilliant astronomer. A rugged cowboy. And a heartbreak written in the stars?Astronomer Rebecca Mayhew has her life planned down to the smallest detail-including the precise qualities she wants in a future husband. After a childhood shaped by chaos and heartbreak, she's built a world of order around her work at the observatory.
Love, she decides, must be sensible and safe. Morgan West is everything her list warns against: rough-edged, unpredictable, and carrying secrets that keep him moving from town to town. Yet despite every reason to stay away, they can't resist each other. As attraction deepens, buried secrets rise, risking not just their chance at love, but the fragile peace they've fought so hard to build.**Second Chance at Whisper Creek**A woman who treasures her independence.
A reformed playboy seeking redemption. A second chance that could heal old wounds-or break her heart all over again. Susie Henderson has built the life she always wanted: successful career at the winery, financial independence, and a heart safely guarded from the kind of devastation James Mackenzie once caused. The last thing she needs is her ex-lover buying the place where she works-and disrupting her carefully ordered world.
James knows he has no right to ask for forgiveness. Ten years ago, his selfishness and immaturity destroyed the best thing in his life. Now he's ready to prove he's changed, starting with making amends to the woman he never stopped loving. But Susie isn't the trusting young woman he left behind. When business forces them to work together, old sparks reignite despite Susie's determination to keep him at arm's length.
James sees glimpses of the deep love they once shared, but Susie sees only the man who shattered her faith in forever. As the past collides with the present, both must decide whether some mistakes can truly be forgiven-and if love really does deserve a second chance.**Summer at the Lakehouse Café**A fiercely independent single mother. A grieving winemaker seeking a fresh start. One summer that could change everything.
Lizzi Burnett has poured her heart into The Lakehouse Café, creating a safe haven by the water where she and six-year-old Aimee could finally breathe free. But when her ex-husband threatens to force a sale unless she can buy him out, the future she's fought so hard to build begins to crumble. Pete Marshall has left behind a life of loss to begin again in New Zealand's Mackenzie country. Drawn to Lizzi's strength-and the vulnerability she tries to hide-he longs to prove that she doesn't have to carry her burdens alone.
But Lizzi has learned the hard way that letting someone close means giving them the power to break you. With the café's future at stake and Aimee's security on the line, Lizzi faces a choice: guard her heart at all costs, or open herself to the possibility that not all love ends in heartbreak.
